I'm sharing a list put out by the AVMA on some of the top poisonous HUMAN drugs that our pets may ingest and the harm they can cause.
Please, keep your medications out of the reach of your pets. You may not understand it (frankly, I don't) but they sometimes will eat them, no matter what they taste or look like!
Check this out: 10 Poison Pills for Pets
And if your pet does eat these or any other human medications, please call YOUR veterinarian (not your neighbor, the breeder, your uncle, your hairdresser, etc). If it's after hours, call an emergency veterinary center in your area.
AND please - PLEASE - call us BEFORE you give any medications we didn't prescribe. We will talk to you about things over the phone if you are a client. Please don't give something for 3 weeks and then call to see if it's ok! Dogs are different than humans and cats, well, they are a whole different animal!
